[ Hi. congratulation from me and my collegues in Etebar website. Also congratulation from all Iranian and we wish you a safe trip. we also wish you health and hounor. I wanted to have an interview with you through internet and I was wondering if it’s possible during your flight? however I don’t want to bother you if you don’t have time

Hello, i’m pouya from south east of france, i have read your story, and i’m very proud for the first persian lady on space.

I have a big passion for space discovery, i wish you could take a nice picture.

Your Prodea System project is very interesting, i’ll be happy to have more information about this project, maybe we could build it together our engeeneering company realize lot of new technologic product arround : hospiyality , intuitive system, dynamique signage, connectivity.

Maybe this is my biggest dream; from the time I was born until now, to go to space, just like you. I have had a dream that someday I’ll be the first Persian who go space 😀 I’m happy that at last my dream comes true, not about me but about you coz we r all brothers. I read all your blog word by word. I’m imagining your situation, your feeling, your mood now. I can’t sleep; it’s soon just some hours that my dreams become true. You will go but my heart with you in each moment. I’ll pray for you, I’ll ask god to save you, I’ll wait for you to come back and tell me about everything you see there.
Take care

I can not show my feeling and can not tell you how much I am proud and happy to see an Iranian lady is going to space.
what you are about to do I could n’t think it will happen in our life or anytime soon.
it dose not matter if you are a tourist or astronaut.what it dose matter is you are breaking the wall for all Iranian women to think for their future and beyon .I am sure all your conry men and women proud and happy for you and wishing you have safe return home.
dear anosheh can you tell us when you are flying over Iran that poeple could see you from their rooftop if the weather permeiting.
i am in New York. also I would like to know the time you will be passing over our area.

Hi ANOOSHE,
I was so excited when I heared about you and your plans. I have a feeling that you are look like a Pilgrim,so please remember our home,IRAN when you are there and ask god to keep it safe for ever.
I am sure that you will do that.

Anousheh Ansari, I haven’t yet read about you and your goals, but everything I have read in the last 7 minutes is enough for me to know that we have similar dreams. I am SOOOOOOOO happy for you to be going to space!! That is something I have always known that I will do!! I have always said ‘I will go to the moon before I die!’. My friends laugh at me, some wish me luck, others voice their disbelief, understandably, as you and I both know that they never will because that is what they believe! I will be following you Anousheh, on your 10 day vacation (I hope you’re staying at a 5 star!! hehe, pun intended) and whatever else it is that you will be doing!!! I love that you are a child at heart, SO AM I!! I would stand in line with the 10-12 year olds too!! And I am beginning to write a book that will prove to young people that having dreams and setting goals really DOES affect your life and future and all the things that can manifest if you just have faith and belief and desire! I wish you all the best with everything that you do! I know you are busy, I hope you get a chance to read this. I just can’t explain how passionate I am about all the things that you are doing and I can only hope that we may cross paths one day! хорошее везение! (good luck!) LIVE ~ LOVE ~ LAUGH ~ DREAM ~ BELIEVE ~ INSPIRE

Hi Anousheh

Hopping and wishing for you more success.

Hi Anousheh
Last night your TV conference was broadcasted on TV4 of Iran for the second time. My family and I watched it and enjoyed too much. We hope you have a successful space cruise with a lot of enjoyable moments. We have been proud of you. I am sure that your journey becomes the incunabula of more trips of residents of other countries. At last I cross my fingers for you and your partners.

Although i’m very proud of having a compatriot like you but i don’t like to repeat exajurated words again,but instead i would like to recommend you to establish a special foundation in Iran to recognition the young talents & direct them to their real path that they love ” just like yourself”.For sure it’ll cover up all the country very soon & your graet name will be registered in our culture for ever.
I would be glad to discuss more about this idea.

We are glad that you are the first female private space explorer.
By the way,we watched your interview on Iran TV 4 and wondered if it is possible to have any radio-communication with you, while you are in the International Space Station ?

I was your geography teacher in Jandark high school. I heard your interview in “Night Sky” program and I am very proud of you and wish you the best of luck in your trip.
Best wishes,

This is Akbar Nemati. I’m an amateur astronomer in iran. I work as a webdesigner and because of that made a website about astronomy and space sciences near two years ago. it called persianstar.com I’m so happy that’s now my website have a related meaning. You are a persianstar.
Have a Nice trip

i heard that u arent allowed to wear the iranian flag(without the allah that is). although not wearing the flag wouldnt make u less iranian, i do think its wrong for the americans and the russians to bring politics into space travel.

anyways i do wish u all the best on ur amazing 10 day trip:) do take lots of pics and share them with us:)

Hi Anousheh,
I proud you, because you are a woman that follow her goal and pay her money for her dream.
I proud you, because I know your mother language… I proud because I can make contact with you easily 😉
It’s all thing, your are a big woman, beacuse pay your life, money and time for your dream, for your goal. You learned me a lot lesson… Im sure that I wont forget you. And I see a day that I recommend my children to follow their dream like you.

Good luck and have fun with the launch tomorrow! We are actually here in Baikonour with you. We’re an international team of women scientists working on immune suppression in space. Our group is from UCSF, San Francisco and consists of Millie Hughes-Fulford (principal investigator), Chai-Fei Li, and me. Our project name is LEUKIN and Thomas Reiter will be activating our experiment in space. Maybe you can take a picture of him with our experiment for us!? We are also keeping a blog of our experiences through Moscow and Baikonour at http://www.tcellsinspace.blogspot.com. It also explains the science of our project and has a link to a short video on our work. Check it out if you can! We’ll all be watching the launch tomorrow. Have fun up in space!

Dear Anoosheh,
I, the same as you have dream to travel to space and you give me hope to try my best for that.
4 days age when I found out that you have an Interview with channel4 TV of Iran, I just stuck to the TVset and watch your 70minute interview with passion.
I’m really proud of you.
By the way, how can we connect you while you are at the space international station?
I wish you the best.
I wish you the best,indeed.
Good luck

Just a quick note to let you know how I feel. Honestly, I cannot describe it but I can say that you are the greatest Iranian lady.

I really hope that your trip, beside everything else that can bring, will some day help us to clear all borders separating our little home into countries and let human beings feel they are all in brotherhood.

Safe travels to you. I wish you the best from the deepest part of my heart.

As the mother-in-law of an young Iranian with the last name Ansari I just had to congratulate you for him. He is in basic training for the USAF in Texas and probably doesn’t know about you yet. I will let him and my daughter know about you ASAP.

All Iranian men and women proud to you as an intelligent and braveheart woman and we hope to be successfull in the trip and also in your life ,I am very gratefull that a person from iran land /country going space and it is hopeful for all iranian to reach the high level of science and technology.

I’m really sorry to say this but unfortunately this very very very important launch of yours after 15 minutes hasn’t been showed on TV. I’m not sure if they show it at all. They could have been more respectful! I don’t know what they’re thinking. But You are important to the people no matter what they do. Have a nice space travel!
